How much does Apple pay its employees in AI, software and other roles?
Synopsis The AI talent war intensifies as Meta lures AI researchers from Apple, prompting Apple to increase compensation for its engineers. Despite launching Apple Intelligence, Apple is facing delays in Siri's revamp and early-stage AI search ambitions. The company is actively hiring across AI roles, offering competitive salaries and benefits to attract talent in this competitive landscape. AP Apple The AI race is heating up and top companies are striving to retain their top AI talent. In the past one month, four senior AI researchers haves switched to Meta from Apple, forcing the tech giant to increase compensation for engineers in its Apple Foundation Models (AFM) group, according to a Bloomberg is lagging behind in the AI race even after launching Apple Intelligence in 2024. Siri's major revamp remains delayed, and Apple's AI search ambitions are still in early development. However, the company is hiring across machine learning and AI roles and is offering lucrative pay packages and perks like stock grants, product discounts, and flexible working Apple does not publicly disclose salaries, a report by Business Insider shared filings for international hires. The filings reveal that AI and engineering roles are among the best-paid. Here is a look at Apple's salary ranges across various roles (base pay only, excluding stock grants and bonuses): Salary Range (USD) Machine Learning Engineer $143,100 - $312,200 Machine Learning Researcher $114,100 - $312,200 Data Scientist $105,550 - $322,400 Software Development Engineer (Applications) $132,267 - $378,700 Human Interface Designer $135,400 - $468,500 Hardware Systems Engineer $125,495 - $378,700 AR/VR Software Development $129,805 - $312,200 Software Engineering Manager $166,691 - $378,700 RF/Analog/Mixed Signal Engineer $131,352 - $312,200 Design Verification Engineer $103,164 - $312,200 While Apple's salaries are competitive, Meta's poaching spree highlights a broader 'talent war' in AI, where giants are racing not just for products, but for people.

China's rare earth curbs hit US defence supply chains, raise costs
China's restrictions on the export of critical minerals are disrupting defence manufacturing in the West, forcing military suppliers to scramble for alternative sources and driving up costs across the industry. The situation has also brought to light the world's heavy reliance on China for rare earth elements (REEs). According to a report by The Wall Street Journal, a US drone-parts manufacturer supplying the UA army reported delays of up to two months due to a shortage of rare earth magnets. These magnets, used in components like drone motors, missile guidance systems, jet engines, and satellite equipment, have become exponentially more expensive. Some materials used by defence firms are now selling for five times their typical price. In one case, samarium—a key element used in high-temperature jet fighter engines—was offered at 60 times the standard rate, the report said. China's rare earth mineral dominance China currently supplies approximately 90 per cent of the world's rare earths and dominates global production of rare earth magnets and other critical materials such as samarium, neodymium, and dysprosium. It also controls over 70 per cent of rare earth element mining. However, Beijing tightened export controls earlier this year amid escalating trade tensions with the United States. Although limited flows resumed after the Trump administration made certain trade concessions in June, China has continued to restrict exports of rare earths and related minerals deemed crucial for defence purposes. The shortage has exposed strategic vulnerabilities in the defence supply chains of major economies. Rare earths are indispensable for manufacturing microelectronics, drone motors, night-vision equipment, missile-guidance systems, and satellite components. China halts rare earth magnet exports to Indian EV makers India, too, is facing the brunt of the curbs. In what officials term a 'complete stop', China halted rare earth magnet exports to Indian electric vehicle (EV) manufacturers in April. The move comes amid growing global scrutiny of dual-use technology—civilian-use products that can be repurposed for military applications. Chinese authorities are reportedly taking steps to ensure no rare earth magnets are diverted to defence-related industries outside their control. Despite comprising just 1-3 per cent of the bill of materials for EVs, rare earth magnets are irreplaceable. Without them, the assembly of even basic EV models, two-wheelers, or hearables like Apple's AirPods comes to a halt. India's auto industry imported rare earth magnets worth ₹306 crore last year. Global demand for rare earth magnets is expected to double to 600,000–650,000 tonnes by 2035. In India, demand is projected to increase four- to six-fold, reaching 2,000–3,000 tonnes over the same period. US adopts 'pandemic playbook' for REEs The US is addressing rare earth supply issues by using a pandemic-style strategy to reduce reliance on China, including federally backed price guarantees to encourage domestic production. At a July 24 meeting, officials told rare earth firms and tech giants like Apple and Microsoft that support similar to a recent MP Materials deal is part of a broader effort to boost US mining and processing, according to a report by Reuters. Launch of Critical Mineral Mission While India has the world's fifth-largest rare earth reserves, the cost of extraction, especially for the heavy rare earths used in EVs, is high. Moreover, such elements are not found in commercially viable concentrations. To address the shortfall, the Indian government has launched the Critical Mineral Mission, earmarking ₹18,000 crore over seven years to develop domestic capabilities. Yet most of these initiatives are mid- to long-term, and cannot provide immediate relief to manufacturers reeling under current shortages. As earlier reported by Business Standard, industry experts suggest that while diversification efforts—such as sourcing from Australia, the US, or African nations—are underway, none of these regions can yet match China's scale, efficiency, or pricing.
